For ∣vs​(η)⟩=(∣0⟩+(−1)seiη∣1⟩)/2​, adding π exchanges the two outcomes of the same projective measurement. At an angle ϕ=jπ/2, the choices ϕ and −ϕ therefore specify the same unordered pair of projectors: their labels differ by jmod2. An adaptive choice between these signs can be replaced by a fixed measurement and a classical label exchange. Together with Pauli-frame propagation along a measurement wire, this permits simultaneous measurements when all adaptive sign changes occur at these Clifford gate angles.
